State of the Channel

A quick update on the status of this channel (it is back!), what is going on, and what is to come.

[@DarkCrystalConjunction]

FALA VAM!

[@thedorku9500]

What does it mean(I’m guessing it’s Podling but I only know so much)?

[@DarkCrystalConjunction]

@@thedorku9500 Yup. Podling for "Thank you"!

[@thedorku9500]

The Dark Crystal Conjunction Fala vam. Oh by the way, where did you find that? I’ve looked for a long time and the only reliable thing I could find was Hup Teaches Podling on social media

[@rebeccawoods6261]

@@thedorku9500 In the original movie when Kira and Jen are with the Podlings. Jen asks Kira how to say "thank you."😊

[@thedorku9500]

Rebecca Woods Thanks, I haven’t finished the OG movie yet so that’s really useful to me

[@sephie44]

I'm still so shook by how many people love the Dark Crystal. Here I thought I was the only one.

[@DarkCrystalConjunction]

Haha, right!? You just gotta make some DC stuff and put it out there to find folks! :P

[@untitled7487]

Were growing stronger each day

[@justsomeokami8867]

I think everyone here thought they were the only ones at first. Now we’re a proud community of DC fans! That’s Dark Crystal...not Detective Comics...though they’re good too. 😅👍🏾

[@anthonyrose2496]

@@justsomeokami8867 so many people that love this. Jason has always been a major proponent even before the Netflix series. Just so amazing in my opinion.

[@xxsoftt]

I found you through Dreamfast With Me! I’ve watched all your other videos and I’m so glad you’re back on YT!

[@DarkCrystalConjunction]

Thanks... That guy can put out videos so fast :D

[@Paula-133]

"Gelfin Gathering" Needs to be a Real Thing!! I've been wishing for something like that for years.

[@DarkCrystalConjunction]

Well, there is gonna be a Great Con-juntion (offical con).

[@johnallen6254]

I’m still coming to terms with the fact that it’s “normal” to be a dark crystal fan all of a sudden.... too used to weird looks from people when I’d say I was

[@DreamfastwithMe]

Glad to hear it officially!! Thank you so much for being a great inspiration to so many of us. Time to light the fires of the DC community!

[@MrMrmike76]

You are welcome and thank you.. I look forward to the book list...

[@marie4904]

Glad you will keep the torch burning!!! There is so much good information on your channel and it's so great.

[@darthsidious322]

End. Begin. All the same. But I'm glad you're here to stay. ;) You've already done a great deal to unify fandom on youtube, so I look forward to the journey continuing. The research you do is much appreciated, and the roundups are always a treat, so I can see what my radar missed.

[@pt_boat_265]

Thank You for all your hard work & efforts to build a community. You Da Man.

[@juliusmaloney]

Woo Hoo! I’ve loved the content you’re putting out there. I’ve bought a heap of things you’ve covered (books & comics mainly) so it’s great to know you’ll be continuing the channel whenever you upload videos. Much appreciated. 👍🏼🧝🏼‍♂️🧝🏼‍♀️💎

[@SPAZraptor]

I was so sad when I found your channel when you had stopped uploading. Im glad to hear you have time to dive back in to it.

[@Y2Jerms]

Welcome back man! I actually flipped out a little once I saw your first video you posted after being gone. I started watching after looking for a tutorial on the board game. Anyways, great to have you back and I look forward to anything you put out whenever you're able to.

[@DarkCrystalConjunction]

It all started with that board game video :D and that wasn't even the first video I wanted to make,... still have made that "first" video :D one day... one day,...

[@Y2Jerms]

@@DarkCrystalConjunction itll happen. I cant wait to see what it is though. Just keep doing it how you're doing it. At your own pace, without all the pressure of feeling that you NEED to put anything out. We'll all still be here.

[@billsmith4932]

Recent subscriber, loving this channel! I must say your Lore videos are definitely my favorite. I'll be sharing those with my kids. As for content recommendation, I was surprised I didn't see a review of Age of Resistance here. What particularly worked and didn't work for you? I'm interested in comparing my own observations with yours. :) Anyway, keep it up, and thank you!!!

[@DarkCrystalConjunction]

I don't know why but doing reviews takes me forever... I need to do Beneath the Dark Crystal series, the YA tetralogy, and AOR still.

[@laurenhunter9214]

Thanks for the update🤘😜🤘

[@DarkCrystalConjunction]

I kept getting the same question over and over so figured this would help :D

[@orlandooracle7008]

Fala Vam!! Hooray!!!💜

[@TheHeroRises]

Great to see you again!

[@DarkCrystalConjunction]

Thanks, truly great to be able to make some vids again and interact with y'all.

[@nathantaylor6759]

I appreciate the channel and your efforts. Really enjoy interacting with other like-minded Dark Crystal fans! Thank you again!

[@DarkCrystalConjunction]

Same here! Thanks.

[@999YCM]

Again, Welcome Back!

[@anthonyrose2496]

It's Official! Thank you as always. We love that you're back. You put out the best quality videos and still recommend others too.

[@elrondriel]

I only recently found your channel but have loved watching your vids and am super glad that its not going anywhere as I find it a really valuable and entertaining resource for The Dark Crystal and with the Netflix series bringing so much more to the lore I look forward to more videos! :) Absolutely love everything Dark Crystal

[@ThisIsKathrynsYT]

Yay! Happy that you're back! Dzenpo✨

[@Dolly_the_Witch]

Hip hip hurray! Glad you’re back! And dude if you don’t make a video EVERY week don’t sweat it, make sure you’re still having fun😊

[@FluppyBagoo4016]

Keep up the great work

[@StoryVoracious]

So... Do you know who the puppeteer caught in shot ,in the Dark Crystal movie is? I haven't been able to find out, and finally I have found a place where someone might be able to tell me. I hope someone here knows. p.s. forgive my burning a hole in my best question being put first, because this is a great chanel with great content!

[@DarkCrystalConjunction]

That was Kevin Clash (clipped here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kHm1m6ufpatqhJo )

[@StoryVoracious]

@@DarkCrystalConjunction Thank you, I've been wondering that for years! Ha ha. I told my friends about it it years ago and ruined a video tape finding it for them when they didn't believe me. Ha ha! I'm so glad it wasn't edited out. Glad that are more of you out there, a bit like me.

[@DarkCrystalConjunction]

@@StoryVoracious oh oops, I thought you meant in Age of Resistance my mistake! I know I have seen that answer, I'll dig it up..

[@StoryVoracious]

Oh. Thanks. I haven't had a chance to look into it anyway yet. Just thought you would know. I didn't know about The Age of Resistance one. 🙂

[@2sifus976]

Welcome back.

[@5ecretcode]

hell yeah, thatta BOY!

[@soflovixen]

Just a little suggestion🤞🏼 I would so love a video where you show us your Dark Crystal collectibles like the kinda stuff that goes beyond the DC books/reading-materials (& cuz you’ve already given us those videos & they’re very thoroughly done too, thank you for that🙏🏼) like for example those figurines that are displayed in the background of your videos🧐 I’d really like a closer look I’d love to see & admire the details🤔 And maybe some info on where you found these items so myself & others might purchase said items🤷🏼‍♀️ But nevertheless I’m just so happy your channel is back & I agree no pressure because this is a labor of love & do appreciate all that you share/upload. Like seriously it’s like that saying “there’s not enough hours in the day” & the ever precious non-replaceable “time” is inevitable & always fleeting so folks are just gonna have to be understanding about that💯 iJS imo I’m just grateful I have the privilege to watch your videos for FREE! Thank you!

[@525Lines]

And the last thing I want from any youtuber is something overly polished. The bombastic youtuber stuff gives me a headache.

[@DarkCrystalConjunction]

Ah ya, I should have also mentioned I hate clickbait and aim to stay away from that as well :D

[@525Lines]

I saw the original movie when it came out but before the Netflix series, nothing.

[@jacqychan]

yayyy!!! i'm so glad that your'e back!

[@morganjackson5854]

First welcome back to KZbin... I missed you Can I ask is there any point in doing a before the age of resistance on skek mal and the other skekis that did not live permently at the castle and if that would be a video you would do?

[@DarkCrystalConjunction]

There is plenty of stuff that happened to the Skeksis before AOR... only a little that we have on skekMal... I do have a video idea on that for him. :)

[@d4dado]

Just noticed the other Myth-speakers are 6, making you 7th. You're all like the Gelfling clans.

[@mullsha7107]

I'd love a discord! I'd assume as all of you are fellow nerds some of you play games too?

[@Caf3Tacvba]

Welcome back!

[@2sifus976]

Lore question: in the creation myths when the Crystal split Augra and Raunip go down to gather all the shards of Crystal they can find. Then in Age of Resistance we see the lost shard in the dual glove. Then when we get to the movie The Dark Crystal Augra dumps a basket of crystal shards in front of Jen. So my question is: how did the crystal shard go from Augra not knowing which is the one, to being in the dual glave, to then being back in a basket mixed with other shards with Augra not knowing which is which? Seems like a plot flop to me. Anyway I love the channel, your video on how to play the board game was very helpful and also your video on the reading order the Dark Crystal books.

[@PaqAttax]

I wouldn't consider it to be a plot hole to me, necessarily. Because "Age of Resistance" ended on something of a cliffhanger alluding that there'd be a Season 2 at some point. We haven't seen the event known as the *Garthim Wars* yet. Nor do we know who Jen & Kira's parents are. Or seen the appearance of SkekUng (The Garthim Master) yet. Or how Aughra got her red outfit. And so on, and so on. Your question about the true shard being in the box mixed up with all the fakes is something I figure will get answered in Season 2 of Age of Resistance.
